Hi anon! Thank you so much for your ask. I think i’ll make this a one shot if you dont mind, I’ve been writing lots of hcs lately and i’m already planning fluffy HCs for Keith to be posted later on this week! Hope you enjoy 💕
My home is with you[Keith Kogane]

Vld Keith x Gn reader
Synopsis: Keith has been gone for two weeks. You start to feel his absence, and the team feels it too. Soon enough, he comes back and takes you away to spend time with you in his own special way
Cw; fluffy Keith, brief and i mean briefff mention of intercourse. Sorta angst but not really? Just you being sad and missing Keith. Happy ending. Kinda lengthy i hope you dont mind. Not a lot of dialect!
Masterlist
To say you missed Keith was an understatement. Between saving conquered planets, keeping the castle stable, and even Keith’s marmora training, you had barely gotten the chance to really sit down and have a nice, quiet night with your boyfriend. Everything felt tense all the time. There was always a lingering sense of panic, never being able to fully relax while Zarkon, and now, Lotor still lurked. They were an ever present danger you never knew when they would strike next.
The one thing you missed the most about earth besides your family and friends was the sense of normalcy you once had. The routine you had set for your life. When you would come over to Keith’s house, an old, isolated and broken down shack in the desert, with creaky floors and dusty broken windows. The place needed some work, but that never mattered to you or Keith. The love that was brewing inside every single time you would pay him a visit is all you and Keith could care about. You missed the cool, quiet nights where you and Keith would sit on his roof, staring up at the very same constellations you’ve now flown by and seen up close. Talking about your dreams, sharing secrets. He would hold you close and you would kiss him, running your fingers through his dark hair, whispering soft words of affection to each other.
You loved waking up next to him after a night of passion, your body aching from the love you had made, every bite and mark on your skin fresh and still stinging. You would glance down at him, sleeping peacefully, hair a mess and adorning matching marks of his own, before getting up and fixing breakfast with whatever he had in the fridge, making a mental note to tell Shiro to take you grocery shopping for Keith later that day. While you cooked he would come up behind you, wearing an old, warn out pair of sweats, hair disheveled, eyes blinking tiredly, still low and half lidded from sleep, but he still looked as handsome as ever. You would sink into his embrace, swaying side to side as you tended to the food cooking on the stove.
Now you sat cold and alone in his room. You’d see Keith less and less as time went on, The Blade of Marmora taking up almost all his time. You understood how important this was to him, you were happy he found a group to belong to, and you know what he was doing was bigger than yourselves. But you’d also began to feel his absence, and it was taking its toll on you. You slept in his room and wore his clothes, those being the only comfort you had whenever Keith was gone for days, sometimes weeks on a mission. It was nothing compared to the feeling in your stomach when he would wrap his arms around you and bring you down to bed with him, the washed out smell of him on his clothes dulled in comparison to the lingering familiar scent of his shampoo, surrounding you every time he embraced you. Nothing could fill in for Keith, and everyone in the castle could see how much you missed him.
So when Keith came back to the castle (unbeknownst to you) Shiro sat him down to have a talk.
Shiro explained that he has known you for as long as he’s been taking care of him. He could tell you werent being yourself and he was concerned with Keith’s frequent absences. “The team needs you, Keith.” Shiro sighed, placing his hand on Keith’s shoulder. “But Y/n needs you the most. You’re the only piece of home they’ve got. Try to be here some more. If not for Voltron then do it for them.” Keith nodded to himself, looking down in shame. He missed you too, but he had been so wrapped up with the Blades that he barely had time to worry about how he felt, or even about how you felt. Guilt fell in his stomach as if he’d swallowed a stone. “I know Shiro, i’m gonna make it up to them, and you guys. I promise.”
You had been sitting in the dining hall chit chatting with Allura and Lance when he came in, you didnt notice at first, picking at your food goo and nodding here and there when Lance would try to include you in the conversation. Keith took your lack of awareness as a chance to study you. Your hair was messily tossed into a hair tie, just as he always loved it, and you were wearing one of his plain black shirts. Keith felt a swell of emotion in his chest when he’d seen your face. Uninterested and blank, missing the spark he’d always search for. He could see from here how he’s impacted you, and his heart felt like it would shatter into a million pieces.
“And then i was like what the quiznak- oh hey Keith! Youre back” Lance chirped, exchanging a knowing look with Allura. But Keith didnt respond, his eyes locked with yours as you whipped around, eyebrows almost raising into your hairline. “Keith! You’re here!” You cried as you launched yourself into his chest, wrapping your arms around him and nuzzling your face into him. Keith smiled wrapping his arms around you to steady you. “Yeah I am..sorry I was gone for so-“ you didnt let him finish, pressing your lips to his and wrapping your arms around his neck to pull him down to meet you. You kissed sweetly, melting into each other.
You barely noticed Allura and Lance snickering at you while they exited the room. Too concerned with eating your boyfriend’s face to care about the teasing you’re probably going to deal with later. After a few moments Keith pulled away, he held your wrists gently in his as he looked into your eyes with all the love he had for you, smiling softly at you. “I missed you so much. All I could think about was you. I- I brought you this.” He handed you a necklace, a small dog tag with your initials carved in the thin piece of metal, the other side had a messy shape you assumed was supposed to be a heart. “I engraved it myself. I found it while we were on a stake out mission. I hope you like it” he sounded so shy and nervous, it made your heart swell with emotion as you handed it back to him. “Can you help me put it on?” “Yeah” you turned your back towards him, beaming as he clicked the hatch for the necklace into place, pressing a soft kiss to the nape of your neck. “I love it baby, thank you” you turned back around to hold grab his hand, eagerly dragging him down the hall. “Cmon, I dont want to waste a second with you- i’m not gonna lie i’ve made a mess of your room but I hope you don’t mind!” “Actually, I want to take you out somewhere.” You stopped in your tracks and looked back at Keith. “Where?” “You’ll see it when we go. Cmon, put on a suit and meet me at the black lion’s hangar.” You nodded before walking into his room anyway, quickly getting changed and running down to meet him.
You held on to his seat as he took off, telling you to hold on tight as you flew out of the castle. You flew for about an hour, passing by vibrant planets and constellations. Pointing out meteors and stars as you passed by. Keith still wouldn’t tell you where you were going until you entered a big, green planet’s atmosphere. You looked over at him quizzically as you landed, the planet had nothing but short, green grass. You couldn’t hear the sounds of any creature or civilization. It was almost as if you were here completely alone. “Keith, where are we?” “This is planet Ogoria. Me and the blades made camp here when i was on that mission. It’s completely unhabited. & I brought you here to see something.” He explained, leading you off the black lion and into the open. “Cmon, lets find somewhere to sit.” Keith had brought with him a big blanket and two pillows, walking a few feet away from the lion before setting the blanket down on a particularly soft patch of grass. He threw the pillows on before sitting down. You followed suit, sitting down next to him, leaning into his body as he wrapped an arm around your waist.
“Look y/n, i’m really sorry i’ve been gone so much lately. The blades and I- well we’re getting close to finding something great” he muttered, glancing over at you. You looked away from him for a second, thinking over your next words. “ I know Keith. I’m not upset with you- I just miss how things used to be you know? I miss home. I miss our life together.” You sighed, gaze locked on your intertwined hands. “ I know, hun. I miss earth too. But we’re here now and we gotta try to make the best of it. This will be over sooner than we think. I feel it.” You looked up into his eyes, and he never looked so assured. You gave him a weak smile, scooting closer to him and pressing a peck to his lips. “Well, you’d better be right about that, Keith. Or i’ll drag us all back to Earth by force.” You giggled at the snort he let out, burrowing yourself deeper into his side, closing your eyes and relishing in his warmth.
“Y/n, look up at the sky”
You blinked your eyes open, having begun to nod off on Keith. When you looked up you let out a gasp. The sky was full of stars, it was as if the whole galaxy was displayed right In front of you in one place. “Keith its..its beautiful!” You whispered, unable to tear your eyes away from the scenery. “I know its nothing like the roof back home, but i figured it’s pretty close.” You tore your gaze away just to meet his, your eyes shining. “Keith I- i dont know what to say…I mean this is incredible!” you saw him smile, glancing up at the stars himself. “Lets get comfortable.” You both leaned down, lying on the pillows and drinking in the sight before you in comfortable silence. “Y/n..” you turned to look at him, his eyes were soft, full of adoration as he looked you over, burning every feature on your face into his mind. “I love you.. thank you for sticking with me.” You brought your hand up to his cheek, pressing a soft kiss to his nose. “I love you too Keith. I’ll always be with you, no matter what.” And so there you laid. Holding onto each other, catching up and telling each other dreams and secrets you harbored. It was nothing like how’d you been on Earth. But Keith made it special, and thats all that mattered to you.
Hopefully you enjoyed Anon! Thank you again for your submission. :> Notes and reblogs appreciated, asks and submissions welcome!! 💗💗

prev chapter
-- -- --
There is, honest to God, a coathanger butler and a duster French maid.
“Well, that confirms it,” Lance says, clapping his hands together. “I fell off my horse on the way here and I’ve gone insane.”
“I think you’re just smart, kiddo,” Shiro says, amused. “Perceptive.” He has yet to stop his tour, hopping along rather quickly as Lance follows. 
Lance opens his mouth to deny that particular claim – Lance is many things and smart is sure as shit not one of them – but there’s a bellowing shout that interrupts him before he can. 
“Ta-kashi!”
Shiro-the-candelabra startles, then goes pale, which is a hilarious thing to witness in a face of wax. 
“Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck,” he curses. He makes an effort to hop behind a random sidetable placed against one of the farther walls of the massive corridor, but he’s not nearly fast enough. Rapid, angry clanking sounds precede the appearance of an ornately carved grandfather clock, the face – literally and figuratively, man this castle is fucking weird – twisted in a heavy scowl. 
“Takashi,” the clock hisses again. “What part of ‘united front' is hard for you to understand?”
Caught completely red-handed, Shiro straightens himself up and attempts to look dignified. “You were busy with Keith! What was I supposed to do, let this one wander around? I was –”
“You were supposed to wait for me, Takashi! Last time –”
It would probably be prudent for Lance to continue listening, as any information he learns is for the better. But as soon as Shiro says Keith’s name, Lance’s ears check out, the world in front of him goes blurry, and he starts to feel like he’s deep underwater. 
It hits him, all at once and intensely, that this is really happening. He is, sometime in the frighteningly near future, going to meet his future husband. His future husband who is known across the country to be one of the most vile men in temper ever to exist, who is impossible to love. His future husband who has money, money that Lance can send back to his family that can never manage to get food on the table for every mouth on every day of the week. The future husband who Lance cannot leave, unlike the people before him, because if he does then the family farm will sell and everyone will be homeless and it will lie on his shoulders. 
If he fails, his family will never look at him again, the shame will be so strong. The kids – they’ll be uprooted if they have to sell the farm and move away. He can’t do that to them. And yes, his family’s betrayal still aches like a gaping wound in his chest (they didn’t want to keep him Mamà didn’t want to keep him only three wanted to keep him and he doesn’t know who they sent him away the town sent him away his family sent him away everyone he’s ever known decided they were better off without him), but he doesn’t – he can’t let their saving grace slip between his fingers. If he fails then his greatest fears are confirmed – he is the failure that he’s always known he is.
But If he succeeds, he will be locked for life in an enchanted castle that feels as if it doubles as a tomb. 
Suddenly Lance is sick to his stomach. 
“–ance? Lance? You okay, kiddo?”
Lance shakes himself from his thoughts, eyes focusing on the concerned faces in front of him. He clears his throat, straightening his shoulders and plastering a smile on his face. 
He will not fail. He will not. It is the lesser of two evils, to succeed, so he must. 
“Yeah, sorry. Just remembered something, is all. I meant to look for something to feed my horse when I came in here, there’s no hay in the stable, but I forgot with all the –” he glances at the clock and candelabra, wondering how to phrase the clusterfuck that is now my life tripped me up, my bad delicately – “the… hubbub.”
Hubbub. 
Alrighty. That’s the word he’s going with. That’s fine. He’s totally cool with suddenly becoming a bitter senior citizen loudly complaining about the youths. All is well.
Despite his strangeness, the two people (??) in front of him visibly soften. 
“Sorry, dear,” the clock says. He clanks forward and extends one of his arms – shiny, carved gold decals of the sides of a grandfather clock – to shake. Lance does. “My name is Adam. I imagine you must be exhausted. Would you like to see your room?
That sounds excellent. Lance sags at the suggestion, shoulders slumping forward and sigh escaping his lungs without his position. His own room in the castle…what will that look like? He’s always shared a bed with someone, back home. And sometimes he is kicked and sometimes people snore and sometimes people squiggle around and hog blankets and talk in their sleep. Sometimes people even pick their toes, completely unconscious, and refuse to believe him when he complains about it in the morning. Such is the life of a large family in a small house. 
Lance will have a bed to his own, now. A room, even! It’s almost unfeasible. He’s expecting something huge; giant windows making up a whole wall at least to let the sun it, impossibly high ceilings, a bed as big as his house once was, with a canopy over the sides of it. As plush as goose down and soft as Kaltenecker’s – his favourite of their family’s cows – fur. Cream walls, maybe, prime for him to paint. 
Paint! He’s sure he’ll have paint here. The richest of colours, even, and paintbrushes he doesn’t have to make from kinky horse hair. And he’s sure he’ll have time, here, outside of whatever chores he’s expected to do, to ride Blue around the grounds. Maybe, for once in his life, he can enjoy his day outside of fleeting moments with the animals, or Veronica, or the twins. Maybe there will be more time outside of fleeting minutes when he watches the sun rise. Maybe he will have freedom here, to explore what he likes, and in luxury, no less. 
Wait. 
His brow furrows. Freedom…he won’t be free. He may be surrounded by more opulence than he ever expected to see in three lifetimes, but freedom is still a luxury he can’t afford.
“What about Ke –” he stumbles over the name – “the Prince?”
Shiro and Adam exchange the least subtle look Lance has ever seen on a human, let alone a grandfather clock and a candelabra. It would be funny if it weren’t so troubling. 
“What about him?” Shiro says carefully. 
Lance blinks at him. “Is his royal highness too busy to meet the guy he’s literally about to marry, or…?”
“We just figured you would prefer to settle yourself, first.” Adam says it quickly, practiced, obvious; confirming Lance’s suspicions. 
There is something afoot. 
“I’m pretty settled, actually. All good in the hood. Checked off most of the list, tick tick tick. I just need to meet Prince Temper-tantrum.”
Both royal attendants laugh nervously. 
“Ah, we’ll get there,” Shiro assures. He hops forward, pointing his candle to the hallway, indicating that Lance should follow him. “We have time, no? It’s late. Dinner will be ready soon. No need.”
He and Adam are very persistent, all but shoving Lance out of the front entrance and to a massive staircase. One of them must have sent the word of Lance’s arrival, because one of the branched-off hallways of the staircase – a wing? Is that what it’s called? Why must rich people label stupid things – is illuminated, clearing the path Lance is meant to take to his new room. The other is as dark as the rest of the castle, cold and isolating, reeking of angst and cowardice and a smidge of superiority, too, because reputation or not, what kind of jackass doesn’t at least introduce themselves to their future husband?
Suddenly, it all kind of boils over. Lance roots himself in the middle of some grand marble hallway and, ignoring Shiro and Adam’s frantic pleading, cups his hands around his mouth and shouts: “Hey, Prince of Darkness! Is it too beneath you to say hello to your future husband, you beastly man?”
His voice echoes throughout the castle, shout bouncing off the carved stone walls and getting louder, somehow. Lance stands, glaring at the dark hallway, fists clenched at his sides, fury still lighting up his veins. But then a minute passes, and another, without so much as a peep of movement, and rage starts to trickle out of his body in favour of something like regret. 
He has one job, here. He is to make nice and play the silent husband so he can get funds back to his family, and no one goes hungry. He is supposed to avoid Prince Keith at any and all possible moments, keeping his head down and living his life as separately and as well as he can given the circumstances. And Adam and Shiro were perfectly happy to let him do so, too, guiding him to his room before he even had to breathe in Prince Keith’s direction. 
Him and his big fucking mouth. Clearly, there is more than one person in this castle with a temper. 
He turns to the candle and the clock. “Sorry,” he mutters, averting his eyes. Hopefully they don’t call this whole thing off. He doesn’t think they will – from what Shiro implied, they seem kind of desperate – but still. He shouldn’t push his luck. 
When Shiro and Adam don’t respond, he looks up, expecting to find them disappointed, but instead finding them not looking at him at all. He frowns, taking in the way their faces have dropped, the way they’ve both gone pale. As pale as bloodless things can be, anyway. He follows their line of sight, shifting his body to face the farthest end of the dark corridor, and squints, trying to make out what they’re so white about. It takes him a moment to pick it out, but eventually he sees it, almost glowing in the darkness – a pair of large, yellow eyes. And…
Teeth?
Lance blinks. He rubs his eyes. He looks again. 
Where the mouth would be, under the eyes, are massive, fang-like teeth, glowing white in the dark shadows. They are not human. They are not even animal. Lance is not sure what they resemble, aside from monstrous. A chill runs down his spine. 
Slowly, silently, the way a wolf might stalk towards prey it knows it has trapped, the shrouded face comes closer, slinking in the shadows. Lance follows it, head tilting higher and higher as he begins to realise how tall this face sits on a still-invisible body; how large this…thing, animal or man, truly is. Closer and closer it steps, until Lance can hear its breaths, until Lance can feel the heat from its body from where it stands, in the last stretch of the shadows. 
Lance swallows. 
“Who are you?” he asks. His voice is surprisingly steady, although his hands tremble. 
Finally, the figure steps out into the light. Dark purple fur is all Lance can see; covering the figure in thick, uneven swaths; large brow drawn tight over his slitted yellow eyes, mouth twisted in a snarl, fangs pushing out from his lips, clawed hands clenched in fists, talons clinking on the floor as he steps closer. Ornate clothing covers his body, heavy red cloak draped over his shoulders, materials Lance can recognise as sturdy and well-dyed and rich. 
The figure bends low, close to Lance’s face. “I am as you say, dear future husband.”
“You’re a – an actual –” Lance stammers.
Prince Keith growls, low in his throat. 
“A beast.”

Shiro: Who’s Hunk?
Keith: Ya know the one in your class.The one we sometimes drop off.
Shiro: Doesn’t ring a bell.
Keith: Ya know tanned,kinda tall and kinda a big guy?
Shiro: Hmmmmm nope.
Keith: He came over for dinner a week ago.
Shiro: Still doesn’t ring a bell.
Keith: He bought those really good cookies remember?
Shiro: OHHH! Him! Yeah he’s such a sweet boy Hunk! His cookies were also delicious!
Keith: *Looks at Adam* Why’d you marry him?
Adam: Your father is very attractive.

takashi tuesday #4
(check the end for notes)
MerMay x Incorrect Quotes If you were wondering about species: Pidge is a greeneye fish, Lance is blue shark, Keith is an electric eel, Hunk is a pufferfish, and Shiro is a silvertip Shark. -
Shiro: That's the one place I told you not to go Keith (Scoffing): Just last week you told me not to go out into the cove Shiro (Unamused): You know what I meant, Keith Keith: Clearly I didn't -
Lance: Shiro, I need your help! Come quick! Shiro: What? What happened!? Lance: Pidge is stuck in a fisherman's net! Shiro (Worried): How'd that happen? Lance: Well I told her I'd let her experiment on me if she could manage to snag me that interesting shell that was caught in it. Shiro (In Shock): I don't know how you guys are still alive. Lance (Shrugging): Dumb luck. -
Keith (Worried): I just don't know what to get him. Shiro (Thoughtful): I found the prettiest shell I could and turned it into a necklace for Adam when I courted him. Keith (Embarrassed): ..I was talking about for his birthday. Shiro (Shrugs): It could still work. -

I know you guys were looking forward to a part 3 to the little Curtashi thing I've been writing but I didn't have the time nor idea to get a decent chunk of it done and ready to be posted today, sorry! I hope this MerMay content can suffice, but trust I will have another part for you guys out next week, I'll even try to have a double upload for it. Hopefully I have more time next week, but as always thank you for tuning in, until next time. Happy Takashi Tuesday!

Next Monday
gonna be honest champ, idk what this means, i can't tell if it's friendly or if it's a threat, i don't really LOVE mondays so if we could do it on Tuesday that might be better, but since I gotcha here I just had some sheith pics open in another tab lol
LIKE HONESTLY WHAT EVEN WAS THIS LOL
Tumblr media
just two dudes running the cosmic horror gauntlet to save each other, who will carry literal scars from it forever, shiro will never be the same after this and keith is the reason he even survived, keith will see the scar on his face every time he looks in the mirror for the rest of his life. HIS FACE. ARE YOU HEARING ME?? HIS FACE. THEY PUT IT RIGHT ON HIS FACE. I'm always thinking about the perfchan fic heart nailed open where it says Where cauterized flesh knotted red and angry, so swollen and sore that he couldn’t smile for a week, and had to chew on the other side of his mouth for months. I think sometimes people like, get haughty in fandom and wanna drag someone's taste, like even in VC fandom the way book fans are frowned upon or teased for "actually liking" the books etc, and same with VLD, like. It's honestly such an uncreative, uninspired take because if the canon was perfect and we didn't want more or want something different we wouldn't be writing fic? I can't emphasize enough that VLD is a disaster but wow these were some great characters that I feel the need to adopt so that they get more respect and more stories!!!!!!!!!!! If the source material was very very good I wouldn't feel the need to fix it okay!!!!!!!
god look at them like how was i supposed to just move on with my life

Tw! Cussing, depression

I feel like Pidge on some level knew
Shiro definitely knew something was going on.
Ex: I saw gay and I knew gay, how? Because Gay is me.
Coran, Allura and Hunk were completely in the dark about this
I think Keith’s crush developed after he saved Lance from Sendeck
“I cradled you in my arms!” Getting a little defensive there, huh, Keith? ;)
Lance’s crush developed when they got back to Earth
They got together after the war was officially over and after Shiro’s wedding
Pidge was 100% plotting to get Lance and Keith together
The whole plan went to flames when Keith left the team (Pidge sobbed for a week since she didn’t have a plan for that outcome. She had all of the letters planned so she went to numbers)
Then when Keith came back, she was happy since her plan could go into motion 😇
Then Lance asked Allura out on a date which I think is part of the reason why Pidge didn’t wanna go help Allura in the first place
Everyone on the team kinda felt like Allura was using Lance as a rebound because of how quickly they got together and after the whole Lotor situation
After the whole Allura sacrificing herself situation Lance was real depressed
He wouldn’t leave the house ever
Keith had to drag him out of the house and this led them for spend a lot of time together
Lance slowly got better and Keith didn’t come around as much
Lance started to miss his company
Their first “Official” date was Shiro’s wedding when Lance asked Keith to be his date
Both were panicking while Pidge was laughing her ass off
The whole team was very supportive of them
Double dates with Shiro and his husband 🙌
Actually, it gets a bit awkward once he talks about them using protection
The definition of ‘Flirty’ x ‘Aggressive but likes it’
Their history is messy like Ross and Rachel’s or Robin and Barney’s or just the plots of both shows

Snippet Sunday just because I can:
"I'm done putting the universe before Keith. He—" Shiro cuts off and rubs a hand over his eyes. Since Pidge burst into his office two vargas ago, he hasn't stopped moving. Between conversations with the Holts and Acxa, he's been desperately attempting to keep up with any news from his post here on the Atlas. But he's done with the long-distance waiting. He needs to be out there. He needs to find Keith.
If you see this and want to share as well, consider yourself tagged (feel free to tag me! Or not! Whatever! 😆).

If he was known for anything, it would be his emotional maturity. Because when Pidge and Keith both floundered with refugees of all ages, Lance, Allura, Shiro, Coran and Hunk would be going around and offering comfort and a break, however small, from their troubles. It was something that came naturally to him from having such a big family.
So when Keith disappeared for two weeks without any trace after the Kral Zera, he freaked out. It was annoying for his friends, and only Coran was able to listen to his panicked rambling every single time.
Then Keith came back, and he didn't spare the details of his travelling, just that he ended up befriending a wolf that could teleport. They fought Lotor, and found out that Shiro was actually a clone and oh gods, his head hurt from all of that.
So now they were on a planet that Coran suggested they stopped on to recharge as much as possible and to relax. They were going to be heading back to Earth soon, which was exciting. Lance hadn't seen his family in so long. He wanted to introduce them to his boyfriend. He wanted to tell Adam that he finally got a boyfriend. Adam would be so proud!
But they needed to sort something out. Namely, why the hell didn't Keith call?
So Lance stood and stretched. eyes darted to him, including Shiro's eyes that had that fatherly look in them.
"Well, I'm tired. I'm going to go to bed now. Night," he said with a little wave. He walked to Red, who bent down to let him in. He could hear the others behind him, murmuring their goodnights except for Keith.
Lance went about his nightly routine, waiting for Keith to join him. It took a few minutes, in which he washed his face and changed into his pajamas, for the man to show up.
Keith was wearing his own pajamas, the wolf behind him. He walked up to Lance and wrapped his arms around him. The both of them relaxed, melting into each other. The wolf went to explore Red's interior, sniffing at things before moving on.
"I missed you," Keith whispered. His voice was deeper, and it sent shivers down Lance's spine.
"I missed you too... Why didn't you call?" He asked. He was prepared for a fight involving Keith being unable to talk at all.
"The quantum abyss didn't have reception," Keith said. Lance frowned.
"Quantum abyss?" He asked. He turned around to see Keith properly. "What is that?"
"It's where we found the planet that Lotor moved the Alteans to. If you're not careful, you can get pulled apart, atom by atom. It nearly happened to me once. Mom saved me from that." Lance gaped at Keith like a fish.
"You- what?"
"I know it sounds bad, but we were able to get to safety. There were these things that had their own ecosystem. They produced enough oxygen for humans to breathe, so Mom and I stayed on one of those while we were traveling," Keith explained. He rubbed circles into Lance's hips.
"What else happened?" Lance asked.
"There was a time dilation. So... Mom and I spent two years there." That truly made Lance's jaw drop. He looked at his boyfriend again, taking in how Keith's jaw was more defined, how his hair was longer and how he was taller now. He was taller than Lance, which meant that Keith was close to Hunk's height. That man was near six foot.
"Holy shit, you're- you aged two years while you were there?" He said.
"Yeah." Keith was watching him.
"You've changed," Lance observed, his voice soft. Keith's eyes grew... sad, almost.
"I have," he agreed. Lance smiled.
"I like these changes, you know," he said nonchalantly as he ran his hands up and down Keith's arms, feeling the newly developed muscles. They weren't like Shiro's, but they were definitely more prominent than before Keith left for the- what was it, quantum abyss?
"You do?" Keith asked. Lance swallowed. Keith's voice was going to be the death of him.
"I do," he replied. He rested his hands on Keith's chest, letting himself feel the faint thumping of Keith's heart. "You're taller than me, now, for one."
"So you like my height?"
"I like you, so I like everything about you," Lance replied, feeling satisfaction as Keith's skin colored just a bit. "Your voice is deeper as well, you know. It's hot." His arms moved to rest on Keith's shoulders, hand connecting behind black hair. Keith smirked and leaned in close.
"You like my voice, darling?" He asked. The Texas accent that Keith only spoke in when he wanted to came through, sounding better with the deeper voice.
"Shut up," Lance said. He pulled Keith into a kiss that he'd been waiting for since he first saw Keith on that screen. Keith hummed into it.
It was- it was the best kiss, for some reason. Perhaps it was because they hadn't seen each other in two weeks - at least, for Lance it was two weeks. For Keith it was two years.
"Why did you brush me off earlier? At the castle?" Lance asked when he pulled away. Keith's eyes were sad. Like, genuinely sad.
"I'm sorry, Lance. I had a mission, and I had complete the mission or else I probably would have decided to ignore it completely in favor of holding you. I... I knew that I'd do that, and I couldn't, because Allura needed to know and we needed to get revenge for all of those Alteans and stop Lotor," Keith said. Lance nodded, unable to say anything. He pressed another kiss to Keith's lips.
"I understand, cariño. It just threw me off a bit there, y'know?"
"Are you actually okay, Lance?" He paused at the question. Normally, it would take longer for Keith to ask that. Lance studied his boyfriend, ignoring the fact that they were both studying each other.
"I'm better now that you're here," he replied honestly. Keith studied him a bit longer, but eventually smiled.
"I'm glad. The past..."
"Two weeks," Lance supplied helpfully.
"It's only been two weeks for you guys?" Keith asked, surprised.
"Yes. Now, you were saying?" Keith smiled and shook his head.
"The past couple of weeks must have been hard for you, yeah?"
"The two years you spent with only your mom and your cosmic, teleporting wolf must have been hard for you. Hey, that's a good idea!"
"What is?"
"Kosmo!"
"Kos... mo..?" Lance pointed at the wolf, who tilted its head.
"Kosmo!" He said again. Keith blinked at Lance, then at the wolf. Then he turned to face Lance again.
"I guess. We'll have to see if he likes it, though." Lance turned to face the wolf.
"How's that sound, huh? Kosmo?" The wolf wagged its tail, then teleported over to them for pets.
"Alright... I guess his name is Kosmo now," Keith agreed. Lance grinned.
"Yep. And... I've been separated from you for far too long. So... what do you say cariño?" Lance asked, a grin on his face. Keith grinned back at him.
"Sure," he said. Red grumbled in the back of Lance's mind then retreated, leaving the two to their own devices. Kosmo, reading the air of the room, also disappeared.

"Do you want to know what I like the best about this newer version of you?" Lance asked. He traced patterns onto Keith's skin.
"What's your favourite thing?" Keith asked. Lance rested his head in the crook of Keith's neck, shivering slightly at the touch of his hand on his back.
"How you've grown emotionally," Lance replied. Keith hummed in response, encouraging Lance to keep going. "I like how you're able to talk about things much better now. The only reason why it took you so long to talk to me this time is because of the fighting, and Shiro too. But you didn't run from talking about things this time, and you apologized without me prompting."
"Mom helped me with that. We bonded a lot during our two years on that creature," Keith replied. Lance listened. He'd always liked the sound of Keith's voice, but he loved it now. The way it rumbled was comforting to Lance.
"I'm glad that you found her," Lance said.
"I'm glad that I found her, too," Keith agreed. "It was weird at first, y'know? How do you talk to a parent that's been absent for most of your life? But I learned about her story, how she met my dad and fell in love with him, how they found Blue and kept her as safe as possible. How Dad had to help Mom give birth which he had experience in. Did you know that he helped deliver babies when the mothers couldn't get to the hospital?"
"He did?"
"Yeah, so he knew what he was doing. Man, that would've been weird to explain. But Mom and I grew closer. We saw visions while we were there, in the quantum abyss."
"What did you see?"
"Us," Keith replied and oh, that was so sweet.
"Tell me," Lance said. And Keith indulged him, telling him of the things he saw. Shiro and Adam getting married and adopting two Altean children. Hunk and Shay getting together, them with a Galra child.
He told him of Matt's future wife and kids, how chaotic they were and how Pidge appeared to be a good aunt. He told Lance about Silvio becoming a cadet at the Garrison.
Then Keith told Lance about the two of them; the girl who looked like them combined that bought crystals that looked like fire and water, about her twin brother who looked like Keith more than Lance but cracked similar jokes to him. About the flying fox creature, about their wedding, how they would rebuild Keith's childhood home for the four of them and visitors.
And Lance listened, letting himself be lulled to sleep by Keith's voice.
When Keith noticed, he smiled. He pressed a kiss to Lance's hair.
"Goodnight, Lance. I love you, so, so much," he whispered.

hi i'm so normal. i promise.
team voltron murder headcanons <3
keith: he slices some galra's head off to save a teammate. he has no reaction in the following moments or for the rest of the mission but once he's alone again he freaks the fuck out and has a moral conundrum. he isolates himself for weeks except for doing missions and talking to shiro about it. shiro has special keith freak out privileges.
hunk: absolutely capable of it. cries for an hour immediately afterwards but then he's fine. processes it out loud for a week though not caring who hears.
lance: it was an accident. he thought they were a sentry from where he was sniping. cries and blubbers about it for weeks on end. never fully gets over it really even after he has to do it over and over again. will definitely need sooooo much therapy once this war is over. like emdr or something.
pidge: honestly cannot bring herself to care that much about it. logics herself out of feeling bad. this is a war. of course she as a soldier in a war will need to kill some people. why is lance so upset.
shiro: numb to it. "guys, the galra had me fight as a gladiator for years," he tells the team when they question why he doesn't seem to care about the fact that they've killed people. "we... know?" they are all confused as to why this is being presented as new information. "did you think they just patched up the losers? come on. this is the galra we're talking about." the solemn air of this admission is ruined as shiro laughs at the realization that dawns on the teams' faces. he is so normal.
allura: she does her best to incapacitate rather than kill but she's definitely willing to if there are no other options. she is more repressed about it than anyone. she goes about her daily life pretending she's fine and doesn't care even though she's thinking about the fact she killed someone for 16 vargas a quintant.
coran: "i was charged with protecting the princess while the galra attacked altea. trust me, they were after her! but i wouldn't let them hurt my princess, you bet not! i went like THIS and THAT and--" he spends a varga miming all the ways he killed galra soldiers and then asks "hey wait where are you all going?" when the team tries to discreetly slip away. he will proudly tell you his body count.
thank you. i'm normal. i promise.
